Incoloy 800H semless weld pipe is an iron-nickel-chromium alloy having the same basic composition
as Incoloy 800, with significantly higher creep rupture strength.
The higher strength results from close control of carbon, aluminum
and titanium contents in conjunction with a high temp anneal. The
800H modification was to control carbon (0.05 to 0.10%) and grain
size to (>ASTM 5) to optimize stress rupture properties. Incoloy
800 H has further modifications to the combined titanium and
aluminum levels (0.85 to 1.2%) to ensure optimum high temperature
properties. The alloy is dual certified and combines the properties
of both forms.
The chemical balance allows the alloy to exhibit excellent
resistance to carburization, oxidation and nitriding atmospheres.
800HT will not become embrittled even after long periods of usage
in the 1200-1600 deg F range where many stainless steels become
brittle. Excellent cold forming characteristics typically
associated with the nickel-chromium alloys are exhibited with
800HT. When cold formed extensively the grain size produces a
visibly undulated surface called "orange peel". 800HT can be welded
by the common techniques used on stainless steels.
Typical applications for the alloy include ethylene pyrolysis,
hydrocarbon cracking, cracking furnaces for vinyl chloride,
diphenol and acetic acid. The alloy is also used for valves,
fittings and other components exposed to corrosive attack from 1100
to 1800 deg F.
Round bar ranging from 3/4" to 6" diameter, and light gauge sheet
and plate. Incoloy 800 H material can be supplied in random
lengths, cut to order or machined to customer requirements.
Machining includes drilling, threading, milling, CNC shapes,
turning, tapping, flanges and others.
